The food here is an experience I will carry with my for the rest of my life. It was the first time I saw those deep purple potatoes! So cool! They were almost blue! The salads were to die for (I mean the rice, quinoa, bean, potato salads - not your average lettuce salad). The chicken breast was fantastic to boot. I can't wait to go back!

Favorite way to relax on the weekends with a friend, so glad they are open Sundays now! I love all the vendors, especially the chef's case you must try!

Visited on a very beautiful, hot, and busy day at the market. I had the eggplant panini. Very tasty all around, and a nice mid-day snack. A bit salty for my taste. Ordering and delivery at this stall could use some signage to help customers know where to go, it was confusing with all the people milling around.

Had the Cuban and it was terrific.

A good amount of stores and goods to look around if you have the time to stop by. Kind of sucks the hours are the way they are but understandable given the type of stuff some of the shops sell. You'll find food that ranges from crepes to paninis to Vietnamese food. There's also stores selling jewelry as well as smaller shops selling bread, honey, vegetables. Great place to go on the weekends in my opinion and parking is plentiful and tons of area to sit so there's never a rush or a crowded feel. It can get hot on humid days. If anything, I just wish there were more food options as there are similar markets on a much larger scale in Cincinnati and Columbus.

Fashioned from an old train platform, this little market is the perfect place to spend some time if you are in Dayton. All local vendors, selling everything from chocolate milk and eggs to plants, art, alpaca goods and jewelry. Several local food vendors offer up an eclectic variety for adventurous foodies. We stopped for breakfast on a Sunday morning. Sweet crepes filled with fresh lemon curd and blueberries, a touch of cinnamon cream and fresh whipped on top. Crepes Boheme has an offering for every palate, both sweet and savory. Ham and cheese, salmon, mushroom/feta as well as strawberry chocolate, banana, so many choices. It's a cute little stand with a bar area to sit. Invoke, locally crafted vegetarian fare. We tried the hashtag hash with carrot sausage and curry sauce. Very tasty, cooked up by their friendly staff right in front of us. They also offered many choices. I want to go back and try some more! Small seating areas sprinkled throughout the narrow platform are available as well as outdoor picnic tables. Garage type doors open to let the good weather in. It was warm the day we went but they have overhead fans, no air conditioning. Eat local, support local, buy local!

I am SO IN LOVE with this market. I so wish Toledo (my town) could make this work. I thought the prices were extremely reasonable! Everyone was super pleasant and it was just a great time. My favorite was Rahms bread. Good lord I could keep that place in $$$ if they were in my town. So good. This market has a little bit of everything. Great food, produce, jewlery, household... Really something for everyone. There was even live music. Just a real nice way to spend a morning!
